Still burning


I want someone who sets my heart on fire.
An eternal flame that is not denied.
I need a new spark to burn an avalanche of liars.
I need a direct route through to wife.


I want a get well card for my love life.
A slice of that cake sure looks nice,
But inside it’s carrot cake.
Where is the chocolate?  
Vegetables!
Give me a break!


Catch my drift and lead me into temptation.
I need to find a new sensation.
A love I have never had before.
Been there, done that; so tired; so bored.
I want a never before seen, woman of my dreams,
Who is destined to become my Queen.


Not a lover who already has a lover,
Or a lover who finds a new lover,
When I am meant to be with her.
I want original; not the same old same.
Give me fireworks!  
Come on!  Entertain!


A notion of excellence.
I don’t want to be one of many men.
I want to be unique.
One reject; two rejections;
Already taken, makes three.


If all I can have is bad for me,
Give me bad at lying; give me empathy.
Give me something for me…
Please.

When you finally find a job that is decent, that pays quite enough and you love but your body betrays you, weakens you, and sabotage your dream.

Will you continue working despite the sleepless yet satisfying days? Or will you quit and listen to your body?
Its hard you know. I need an advice

You don’t know I exist
So I talk to you
And the next thing I know
You’re stuck to me like glue
Wouldn’t stop texting me
Not able to leave me alone
And the crazy thing about it is
I don’t mind it at all
Having you by my side
Makes me feel so amazing
Like I could conquer the world
Like I could do anything
Unable to imagine
What life was like before
I’d walk over to you
And you’d be wide open, like a door
Loving you everyday
And knowing you love me too
Gives me so much confidence
And lets me see my life through
I actually talked to my crush! The butterflies won't leave me alone now!

I'd get tired of the wait
Undress me and strip me bare again every season
Yes, I might enjoy the attention
But something I'd long,
is it so wrong?
More than just the adoration
I want you to make the bet
Always an onlooker,
never a taker
I wonder how it would be to go home with you
I promise not ask you to jump over the bar
Even though I know I can't give much either
That'd be more than what you'd bargain for
That'd be more than what I'm capable, and I'd lie to me,
Or until I learn to do so, maybe
but should I
would I?
Can I?
To bet my whole existence on something so fleeting?
your mere feeling
Although the power of persuassion
sometimes is a pressure so strong alone
Would you discard me,
once you take me?
Would I be less lonely,
would you be less lonely?
Would you regret me?
Would I regret me?
...
Sometimes I wonder so
and this yearning that I crave to know
But, always an onlooker,
never a taker

Sometime love feels like...
uncomfortable feelings sitting in your stomach
Uneasy thoughts in your mind
Forcing you to hold on to painful thoughts
Of what it would be like to not be loved
Just sometimes love doesn't feel like love
It feels like darkness swarming your soul
Needles pearsing your heart
As your lovers fingertips squeeze out all emotions
Leaving you drained of all feelings
Sometimes just sometimes love does not feel like love

Two old friends
Meet again
Crying in the rain
They are both broken
Scattered pieces of their hearts
Hoping they heal it from apart
So much pain
Doesn't have enough energy gain
Adamantine to forget
They are not in the right mind set
They both saw the struggles
And decide to heal it by piece
And a promise that seals
It will take forever
But they will fight together
